Survivor

Peter Harkey was placed on the Maraamu tribe. Although a hard worker, his personality rubbed people the wrong way. Rob Mariano described him as a "fruit loop." He relaxed with Sean Rector, joking about wanting to build a hot tub. Maraamu lost the first challenge because they dropped their torch in the water. Before the tribe's first Tribal Council, Peter gave everyone a speech about voting politics. He made it clear that he was gunning for Patricia Jackson for being the physically weakest and tried to get his other tribe members to agree to vote for her. His early strategizing and odd demeanor turned things on Peter. The bowling alley manager became the first person to be sent home in a 5-2-1 vote.
